Chapter 47 New Building Manager
Lu Xingtang returned home and continued to kill fish. His consciousness in the space was also busy killing fish. After killing all the fish, another day passed. Lu Xingtang was so tired that he couldn't even lift his arms. Ji Yanmo and Su Cheng also found the door, installed it, and gave Lu Xingtang a key.
Lu Xingtang packed the cooked beef and beef bones in disposable lunch boxes and stored them in the space warehouse. Whenever he wanted to eat, he would take out a box.
Then he started to cook fish. He made squirrel mandarin fish, sweet and sour fish, braised fish, chopped pepper fish head, pickled fish, spicy fish, sour soup fish... He made everything that Lu Xingtang could think of.
Lu Xingtang thought about the fish outside the space and decided to pickle them all to save trouble. Before making pickled fish, he had to make fermented glutinous rice. So Lu Xingtang pickled the killed fish and placed them in the space, steamed three large pots of glutinous rice, and started making fermented glutinous rice.
Only after the fermented glutinous rice is ready can we start to pickle the fish. Fortunately, the warehouse and villa with space are in a static state, otherwise the pickled fish will be too flavorful.
Three days later, Lu Xingtang put the fertilized chicken eggs, fertilized duck eggs, and fertilized goose eggs that had been soaked for three days into the incubator and began to incubate them. The temperature was maintained at 55-60°, and then maintained at 60-65°. After seven days, they were exposed to light.
The fermented glutinous rice is also ready, and Lu Xingtang officially starts the step of pickling the fish. He takes out the pickled fish, adds chili powder, peppercorns, etc. to make pickled glutinous rice, and fills the fish belly with the pickled glutinous rice. Then he spreads a layer of pickled glutinous rice and a layer of fish in the pickling barrel or jar, layer by layer. After pressing them tightly, he leaves 20 cm at the mouth of the barrel, then sprinkles the brine from the original pickled fish on it, and finally presses on the pressing plate and pebbles.
Ji Yanmo and Su Cheng learned that Lu Xingtang had made pickled fish, and followed Lu Xingtang to learn how to make it. They even exchanged rice for the glutinous rice that Lu Xingtang had stockpiled. With Lu Xingtang's help, their pickled fish was nearing completion.
It was also at this time that their building finally elected a building manager, Min Weihuan!
Min Weihuan, the second building manager in her previous life, was a real estate sales manager before the natural disaster. She lived in room 1603 on the 16th floor. A few days after the natural disaster, when she went to the widow's house in room 1604 to sort out Song Yingwei and Tan Zheng, he wasn't home. He didn't return until the next day. During this time, he kept a low profile and went out with his family to look for supplies.
Lu Xingtang had several conversations with Min Weihuan in his previous life. This person was indeed very thoughtful and could read people's expressions. Under his leadership, life in their apartment building gradually improved.
After Min Weihuan was elected as the building manager in this life, he went upstairs and knocked on the door. "Hello, residents of the 19th floor, I'm the elected building manager. My name is Min Weihuan. I used to be the real estate sales manager. I have settled the residents who returned from the shelter in small homes! They won't cause you any trouble!"
Lu Xingtang said bluntly, "Min Weihuan, you're the building manager they elected. Since you've come to our door, let's be clear. First, we don't want anyone from this building to cause trouble on the 19th floor, let alone pry open our doors and rob us when we're out looking for supplies!"
Second, if anything happens in this building, don't call us. We on the 19th floor are completely isolated from you! You are you, we are us, and the boundaries are clear. I hope you understand!
Third, I won't attack anyone unless they attack me. But if they do, I'll kill them, so please keep them under control!"
Min Weihuan nodded. "I've thought about these things a long time ago, and I've told them. I'm their building manager, and I'll take everyone out to look for supplies. But if they mess with anyone on the 19th floor, I won't support them or clean up their messes. We're all adults, and we should pay for our mistakes!"
Lu Xingtang sneered, "Will they agree?"
"They can disagree!" Min Weihuan said calmly, "The consequence of disagreeing is that I will not care about anything! I will let them fend for themselves!"
It was only with the approval of everyone in the building that Min Weihuan took on the position of building manager. For him, the position of building manager was not an honor, but a responsibility and a burden of pressure.
After seeing Min Weihuan off, Lu Xingtang noticed that Ji Yanmo and Su Cheng looked unhappy these past two days. When he asked them about it, they shook their heads and didn't tell Lu Xingtang, leaving Lu Xingtang confused.
Wu Jin came back exhausted from outside, holding a bag of soaked rice in his hand. When he saw Lu Xingtang, his eyes lit up: "Lu Xingtang, please do me a favor! I'm willing to exchange supplies."
Lu Xingtang suddenly remembered that at this time in his previous life, Wu Jin's mother, You Xiufeng, had died of a gastrointestinal cold.
"What help?" For the sake of supplies.
Wu Na said anxiously, "It's my mom. She's not feeling well. A few days ago, she complained about the fish at home being too fishy and insisted on opening the windows for fresh air. As a result, she fell ill that night. We've run out of medicine, but she's not getting better. The floods have submerged the hospital, and we can't find a doctor. I'm really at my wit's end. Please help me!"
He knew that Lu Xingtang was a medical student who had only studied for a year and probably didn't even have a thorough grasp of medical knowledge. He didn't dare let Lu Xingtang see him, but since he really couldn't find a doctor, he could only ask Lu Xingtang for help.
Lu Xingtang nodded: "I can show you, but I may not be able to cure it."
"It's okay to just take a look. At least it will give us some mental preparation. My mom is already in her seventies, and we've already made preparations!"
Lu Xingtang followed Wu Jin into room 1904 and examined You Xiufeng's pulse. After a while, Lu Xingtang asked, "Wu Jin, does your mother have kidney disease?"
"Yes! My mother has uremia. It was only diagnosed before the natural disaster. But my family has no money for her treatment, so we can only take some medicine prescribed by the hospital. Now the medicine is gone, and she has caught a cold..." This delay has lasted for 26 days. My mother's body has long been worn down. Now she can't eat or defecate, and her breathing is intermittent. I'm afraid...
"Since you know, I won't say much." He then left the bedroom and said, "Staying with her well!" She probably won't survive the night, and even if she takes medicine, it won't have any effect.
Wu Jin gave five potatoes to Lu Xingtang to thank him. It was not because he was stingy, but because their family really had no food left.
Sure enough, that night, Wu Jin's mother passed away. The Wu family cried very miserably, especially Wu Ge, who screamed and blamed Wu Jin for not taking good care of his mother. Wu Zhaohai and Wu Ge scolded Wu Jin for being unfilial. The scene was very suffocating, but Wu Jin's family of four said nothing and let the father and son scold them.
When Lu Xingtang saw Wu Jin again, he was unshaven and looked exhausted. He nodded slightly, but Lu Xingtang didn't ask Wu Jin's mother what she had done. Su Cheng had already told her that Wu Jin and his wife, Qian Hanyue, had thrown her mother's body out of the window, where it was swept away by the flood.
He accidentally saw it when he was observing the community with a telescope.
